CHEAPER TO DO RIGHT.

The San Francisco correspondent of
the Stockton Mail seems to be we'll
posted on all subjects he writes
about, and he certainly writes most
entertainingly. In his last letter
"Undertaker" says Morrow's expenses
in that embracery affair have already
been not less than S25O,OO0. First
Morrow had to pay Creighton, Doane
and Northoy. Then he had to pay
the three $500 fines that Judge Ed
monds imposed on these worthless for
contempt Of court committed in try
ing to bride jurors. Then came the
expenses of the trials Of Doanc, Nor
they and Creighton. Then Morrow
paid Northey $4,000 and McCord
$4,000 to keep them quiet. McCord
came back fer some more and had 70
DO settled with. Then Northey had
to be squared again. Detective Da
Wis got $4,000 moro to GO away until
after the trial, and Dick Creighton
got about $4,000 more to jump his
bonds. Creighton's bondsmen will

ESTABLISHES OF GROWTH"

The Ceur d'Alene Sun quotes the
T1MFs's recent statement that county
warrants could not be sold for rs
cents on the dollar, as conclusive evi
denee that Alturas county is not pros
porous, and challenges "the press Of
South Idaho to produce the statistics
OF their growth"
The TINES can speak for Alturas.
IN 1880 it ranked as the ninth or
tenth county in the Territory, and its
assessment roll scarcely footed up q
third of q million dollars. This year
the county stands the FIRsT-NUM-
Der ONE-in Idaho in population
and wealth, and its assessment roll
proximates FOUR MILLIONS OF DOL
LARS! And this has been the dullest
year experienced here since the settle
ment of this region by the whites.
The county debt could have been
funded last April with either OF
three parties-at 81 per cent. per an
nun interest. The Commissioners
hold out for 6 per cent, however, but
unsuccessfully, and a portion, if not
all of it, has recently been placed at 7
per cent.-three or four days after the
FIRST real attempt to sell the bonds
was made. While Shoshone county 5
bonds, if we remember correctly,
could only be placed at 8 per cent
aud early lust spring, at that.
Is the Sun satisfied ? If not, the
TIMES will cheerfully supply it with
any further information which it may
desire upon this subject.

How Camphor is Made.

Camphor is made in Japan in this
way. After a tree is felled to the earth
it is cut into chips, which are laid in a
tub or large iron pot partially filled
with water. and placed over slow fire.
Through holes in the bottom of the tub
steam slowly rises. and heating the
chips generates oil and camphor, OF
course. the tub with the chips has a
closely fitting cover. From this cover
u bamboo pipe leads to succession Of
other tubs with bamboo connection,
aud the last of these tnbs is divided
into two compartments, one above the
other, the dividing floor being per-
forated with small holes to allow the
water and oil to pass to the lower COM
partment. The upper compartment is
supplied with straw layer. which
catches and holds the camphor in crys-
TIL in deposit as it passes to the cooling
process. The camphor is then sep
ar.lted from the straw. packed in
wooden tubs and is ready for market,
Tho oil is used by the natives for illu-
m!nating and other purposes. Chris

, Experts say that curtains and fine
laces can be made of malleable iron
and steel. At the Centennial Exhibi-
ton a piece Of steel rolled by a mill in
Pittsburgh was so thin that it weighed
less than a book leaf, and could DO
blown off the hand easier than paper
the same size. The sheets for steel lace
will be rolled down to a low gague and
the patterns pressed into them. The
lace can be made light or heavy, and
is is suitable for ladies' and schildren's
underwear, perhaps for trimming hats,
wraps and dresses.

NY SWEETHEART.

As heard on New Year morning
At my door gentle tap, f.
In came my little sweetheart, a
And climbed into my lap.
Her eyes were like forget-me.nots.
Herhair was wavy gold,
Her lips wero made for kisses
She is only flve years old. '.
Her hands were filed with flowers
Afairer flower was she;
And scattering fragrance round her,
She said, with merry glee:
'Theres Happy New Year hidden
Among those violet's blue, .
And every little rosebud z
Has some message sweet for you.
" And when these flowers bring you Y
Shall droop and fade away,
TIL be your little heart's-ease
Forever and day."
Very soon the violets wtthered,
The rose and mignonnette;
But clasp my heart s-ease In my arms,
And there she blossoms yet.

Well SAID.

Closing words of Judge Hugh J. Camp
BELLS, memorial Grafton at Huron were
as follows: 81 now claim to speak for
tho people of Dakota without distinction
of party whose interests are suffering,
whose industries are languished, whose
enterprises are crippled, whose litigants
and suitors are meeting with II denial of
Justice in the courts, who are taxed with
out representation whose property in
forests are the sport and whim of a de-
partment clerk, whose magnificent do
main of school lands is being despoiled
and fritted away without remedy, and
who are governed by a government that
is neither OF the people, by the people,
nor for the people. I speak for a people
who are uniustly and illegally and I'M
constitutionally denied every right, dcs-
poiled of every liberty and inflicted with
every injustice and form of tyrrany
named in the Declaration of Independ.
ence, and rebelled against by our own
forefathers of the Revolution. Shame on
a government; an administration or a
department., that thinks more of an in
significant strip ofland, that looks more
carefully to the rights of a few struggling
Indians, that is more anxious about
sectional or partisan predominance than
it is of the most sacred rights and the
dearest liberties of GOO, 900 American cit.

Some New Combines"
Bradstreets

Bradstrects.
One of the most interesting features of
commercial economies in recent days is
the development of combinations, side
by side with competition, as an element
in determining the course of industry
and trade. We are all familiar with
combinations in the business of trans
portation, and of late years in several
important branches of manufacture,
some striking examples of combination
have made their appearance. While such
combinations were established for a tenn
porary purpose they did not excite very
great attention except at intervals. Lat
terly, however, a tendency is noticeable
to establish them on a permanent basis
in the form of what are known as trusts,
of which forms of combination the Stan
dard Oil Trust, the American Cotton Oil
Trust and the American Cattle Trust are
examples. The most recent additions
to the list of these great combinations
is a Rubber Trust, which seeks to con-
troll the rubber industry in America
The plan includes the control ofthe man.
ufacturing of all rubber goods, the mon.
opoly ofthe importation of crude rubber,
the fixing of the market value Of both
crude and manufactured goods, and the
control of workmen engaged in the in
dustry, so as to prevent successful at
tcmpts at strikes. The fixing of lega1
status ofthese trusts is something which
yet remains to be done. They promise
to furnish some highly interesting prob
lens for solution by the statesmen ant
contemists in the near future.

A GLORIOUS RAIN.

The heaviest rain that North Dakota
has seen for over two years came
Wednesday night, Thursday and Thurs
day night of this week. The fall was
gradual and the parched earth drank
it in drop by drop and seemed to thirst
for more. The entire Devils Lake, Big
Coulee, Turtle Mountain and Mouse
river country was equally favored. The
spring showers had kept the young
grain in fair condition, but the time had
arrived when good general rain was
much needed. 1t came at the most
opportunc period and will be of vast
benefit. An average crop in North Da.
knta Is now assured.
